My first acquisition for the new year also (technically I ordered them last year) -
MOSC G1 Scrapper and AFA case!
These were supposed to be a b'day present but the rule in my house is to buy your own gifts to avoid disappointment. These are presents I won't be returning :D

LOL... It's all good. It's actually the 1989 Chinese Hasbro reissue so it's legit (note the sticker on the top right and assortment code on the bottom right). For some reason the pic of the fake has been removed. I linked it to TFW so they must have deleted / moved it.Quote:

[edit] nvm, misread sky shadows leg fold out post hehe
Yeah but I know better than to listen to you :eek:Quote:

Encore #19 - Frenzy, Rumble, Lazerbeak and Overkill thanks to Fungal Infection :D
That now completes the G1 cartoon cassettes for me, am not after the combiners or Japanese ones so I'm happy.

What I do like about the alternate transformation is that it means the two characters look a lot less like it's just the same guy who turned around and pulled back his toupée. They have different arm and leg configurations and are different heights - it makes the Decepticon army look not quite so stupid that they don't realise the two robots are the same bloke. :)Quote:

Thanks to reillyd!
Picked up a Transformers Animated plate, cup, and drink bottle from Target the other day.
Also got a chrome Decepticon logo for my car which I just fitted. I placed it on the petrol cap cover in case it gets lifted and my car gets scratched. It would be easier to repaint rather than having to do a whole quarter panel. It's sad to have to do this, but I am aware of others on the board who have had theirs stolen.
My carton of Kabaya TF Candy arrived yesterday and I finally got a chance to go pick them up today:

This month I got my first Animated figures.

Most everything was gone but I got Swoop, Snarl (Slag) and Activators Grimlock for about $28 (total).
Also got Animated Megatron and Starcream Voyagers from the Target $25 sale for my dinobuddies to battle :D
My first purchases for the year - a year that should be somewhat smaller compared to other years due to the need to save for more important things.
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...2001Haul01.jpg
Universe Triceradon, Energon Grimlock/Swoop Instructions, Energon Divebomb, MOSC Classics Grimlock, MIB Micron Legend Cyber Hawk, MOC Powerglide, MOC Wheelie

Is that the Korean version of Cybertron Vector Prime?
Any chance of close up pics of it in all it's glory (perhaps on the action pose thread)?
I've been thinking about getting it, but just not sure how different it is to the Hasbro version.
The boxed item is the korean wing saber. The Vector Prime sitting on the box is the japanese takara one.
The korean takara vector prime is being sold at robotkingdom though.
Pic taking in progress! Watch the action pose thread!
Cool thanks mate!Quote:

Lint what is that thing on the bottom? i must have oneQuote:
